U.S. sets record of more than 90,000 COVID-19 patients in hospitals and health-care workers warn situation is dire
CDC model estimates that true U.S. case tally was close to 58 million through September and is closer to 100 million now
The U.S. set a fresh record for hospitalizations with the coronavirus illness COVID-19 on Thanksgiving Day, with more than 90,000 Americans in U.S. hospitals, the most since the start of the pandemic.
The U.S. counted at least 103,116 new cases on Thursday, according to a New York Times tracker. That’s below recent daily tallies that have come closer to 200,000, but some states did not report their numbers for the holiday, which means the true tally is likely higher.
There are now 90,481 COVID-19 patients in U.S. hospitals, according to the COVID Tracking Project, breaking the record of 89,959 set a day ago. The U.S. leads the world by cases, at 12.9 million, and fatalities, at 263,462, according to data aggregated by Johns Hopkins University.
Case numbers have been rising across the U.S. in recent weeks, and health-care workers are reported to be exhausted and stressed as hospitals and intensive-care-unit beds fill. The governors of Iowa and North Dakota have reversed their stances on face masks and mandated them in public spaces.
In Wisconsin, hundreds of health-care workers at one system signed an open letter pleading with Dairy State residents to follow safety measures and avoid gatherings that would put them at risk.
“Wisconsin is in a bad place right now with no sign of things getting better without action,” said the letter from UW Health, the state university’s medical center and health system.
“We are, quite simply, out of time. Without immediate change, our hospitals will be too full to treat all of those with the virus and those with other illnesses or injuries,” said the letter.
Local officials elsewhere who have resisted mask wearing are continuing to test positive for COVID-19. Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon, a Republican, tested positive on Wednesday. His office said he has mild symptoms and would continue to work while isolating.
